The Reluctant Reaper by Gina X. Grant

Looking for a little zany adventure into hell? Me neither
but as far a story goes this is a quirky little book that may entertain you. I
call these “waiting room books.” No thought process no plotlines to keep up
with. Just frivolity and a quick read

Kristy a very naïve girl finds herself traveling into
hell with the grim reaper. Ultimately
she wants to get back to her life as she is somewhere in a coma. Kristy
untimely death/coma was an accident and she needs to figure out how to fix it. Along the way we meet a host of characters.

I chuckled a few times but sadly not enough. Some of the
one liners had me rolling my eyes. Don’t get me wrong it’s not a horrible book.
I do see great potential in this series. I just won’t be along for the ride.

2.5 Stars (KT Book Reviews rating of between I was OK and
I liked it) Not bad really. So if you need a no brainer while waiting in line
give it a go.

Life for Kirsty d’Arc might not be perfect, but it’s far
from hellish. She likes her job, has a great BFF and truly admires Conrad, her
boss. But when she dives in front of a lunatic’s blade to save him from certain
death, she finds out Conrad isn’t so admirable after all. In fact, he’s traded
her soul to the Devil!

While her body lies comatose on the Mortal Coil, Kirsty’s spirit is dragged
straight to Hell…which is not quite the fire-and-brimstone abyss she’d
expected. In fact, the place is quirky, wacky, and not without charm. Desperate
to reunite body and soul before her time runs out, she seeks out allies,
earning the friendship of a powerful drag demon, a psychic server and most
importantly, Hell’s civil servant. But what of her growing attraction to Dante,
the sexy Reaper with a flair for romantic language—can she forgive him for
scything her soul?

Stuck in the netherworld, Kirsty vows she’ll do everything on her postmortem
bucket-list, starting with getting her life back and ensuring that Conrad has
Hell to pay!
